He can be exciting to watch, but didn't have a great year by any means. He sells a lot of jerseys. That's all I can think of as far as his selection this year considering his team isn't in the playoffs.

Exactly there are people evedry year that make the MLB All Star teams that are simply there because they are fan favorites. I mean take this past season for example Bonds wasn't even playing yet he received votes from people. Vick is in the Pro Bowl because he is a media favorite and a cash cow for the NFL.

doesnt happen? look at derek jeter. even if you hate the yankees with all your life, you cant deny the guy is amazing. i dont think he was selected and if he was, it was the last postion and he didnt play. but vick defintely didnt deserve this selection. i know stats dont mean anything but his are not getting any better, and atlanta didnt even make it to the postseason.

Same question as why does Sean Taylor not get in and Roy Williams does? Taylor's the better player but Roy's more popular.

The Pro Bowl's a joke....nothing but a popularity contest. I remember seeing somewhere where it is the least watched game of any sport.

i watch SOME of the probowl..basically just want to check out on how the bears are doing..

i do like the pregame stuff they show on ESPN2 or is it NFL Network now they might of switched it not sure...

like the old timers game, NFL QB Challenge the little things like that i think are pretty cool...the game for itself is just boring
